LIGHT MUSEUM
A museum dedicated to the life and inventions of the Lumière brothers, with a large section devoted to cinema, a magical place in Lyon.
The Musée Lumière is housed in the Villa Lumière - a "château" built by Antoine Lumière - on the very site where cinema was born. The Hangar, just opposite, was the setting for the very first film in history, shot by Louis Lumière in 1895. In addition to the famousNo. 1 camera, you'll marvel at a relief zoetrope that shows how still images are transformed into animation. A unique site to rediscover. You can also visit the Librairie du Premier-Film, France's largest cinema bookshop, and the Café Lumière.

The visit is interesting around the succession of rooms, recommended for large and small!
Especially as the museum does not stop the creation of the cinema by the lumière brothers, but all their life, and I must say that their biography is surprising very diverse inventions.
A visit to 2:00 terminal which is one hour rallongeable watching the free film inside (have time, unfortunately), just 6€ in the price. Nothing to say
